'''Robert Bernecky''' is an APL designer and implementer notable for significant contributions to [[SHARP APL]] and developing an APL compiler, [[APEX]].


Bernecky first began working with APL at [[I.P. Sharp Associates]] in 1971. His first APL-related publication, in 1973, described performance improvements to SHARP's [[Index-Of]] and [[Membership]] implementations. In addition to his implementation work, Bernecky contributed to the design of [[comparison tolerance]], [[Replicate]] (extending [[Compress]]), and the [[Rank operator]] in [[SHARP APL]]. He remained at IPSA for three years after it was acquired by Reuters in 1987, leaving in 1990 to found his current company Snake Island Research and work on the [[APEX]] APL compiler. While at Snake Island Research he enrolled in graduate studies at the [[wikipedia:University of Toronto|University of Toronto]]; he obtained a Master of Science degree in 1997 with a thesis titled "APEX: The APL Parallel Executor".
